6BR Lapua Ammo data

[cro789]

Looking to see if anyone can tell me what the load data for Lapua 6BR ammo with the 105 bullet is. What powder and amount along with primer. The rest like oal I have.
The ammo shoots so well I am trying to duplicate it.

Take it you are referring to the Lapua 105 bullet? I'm getting ready to start but will be working with the Berger Hybrid 105, Varget and CCI 405. A local builder/shooter and the guy who does his loads states that 30/30 -30 grains of Varget, .030 off from touch is the magic potion. That should give you a start.

Thanks I just got a reply from Lapua and they will not release any information on their loaded ammo. I will try your suggestion and that will give me a start.

Thanks

With straight 6 BR you will hit compression with Varget somewhere around 29 grains.
You can start at 26 but most of the time folks start at 27 and go up. Your preferred seating depth has an effect on where your best performance will show up.

I have run 30.3 varget I just have to use a drop tube funnel like the blue one from Forster. I just got a new funnel from Area 419 with two drop extensions to match the blue one. It works but you are right, its work.
